HC Deb 22 May 1912 vol 38 c1923
Mr. HUNT

asked the Prime Minister whether, if the Established Church (Wales) Bill fails to pass through all its stages in the House of Commons before Christmas, it is the intention of the Government to hold over the Bill till next year and pass the remainder then; and, if so, would the people have two years to consider the Bill before it is forced through both Houses of Parliament, and, if not, what time would be allowed?

Mr. McKENNA

Mr. HUNT

Did the Prime Minister promise, on the introduction of the Bill, that we should have two years to consider it before it was forced through?

Mr. McKENNA

The Prime Minister can speak for himself.
